Very interesting idea. I usually maintain a list of snippets that do very common processing and paste it myself.

I see CodeMatch as a nice interface to access template-ized snippets, such as those that come with TextMate. Is it more than that?

We think parameterized shortcuts will be the primary use case, but there are several other cases that we're also excited about. Code snippets can easily be shared (they are stored online) and code snippets are searchable (beyond memorized shortcuts, you can find snippets previously unknown to you).
